Scribe v2 just flexed: true live ASR that actually keeps up.

ElevenLabs positions Scribe v2 Realtime for agents, meetings, and any app needing instant speech→text. The pitch: state‑of‑the‑art accuracy at low latency, robust in noise, and broad language support with enterprise‑grade compliance.

Trying a claude skill in claude.ai to interact with Google Drive apis or GCP apis, but it seems like thats blocked for some reasons. Other apis / urls seem to work though, a bit weird. Maybe that's more Google itself blocking the requests, I guess.

Got Bash and some code interpreter? Skip MCP.

Mainmatter is looking for an experienced Rust developer to join one of our projects as a freelancer.

We're migrating a database from C to Rust. The project is complex and performance-sensitive. That's what makes it fun!

If you're interested, send an email to the address in the screenshot.

I just launched github.com/tobilg/sql-w...

It's a tiny (<10kb gzipped) wrapper around @duckdb.org WASM that can run queries interactively, and be embedded in plain HTML websites, as well as all other mayor frontend frameworks...

It's an early version, feedback warmly appreciated!

It took a little research to figure this out, but here's what you need to do to get Claude to automatically format code after changes. In my case, format-file calls prettier, ruff, zig fmt, etc., depending on the file extension.

Just built a skill for Claude to estimate Pub/Sub cost in GCP - it contains the actual pricing data and a python script to do accurate calculations. This is pretty cool stuff!

Claude Code starts getting fancy
October 17, 2025 at 3:10 PM
Are the new macbooks any good? Or would one just get an ipad pro and a remote vm to run Claude Code?

Have a Google cloud project which I’m working on recently, and I must say it’s a quite nice experience overall so far

Turns out I was running my external hard-drive on the wrong port on my Mac Studio 🤪 And who fixed it? Claude Code.

Buckle up, I'm gonna use "terraform test" 😅
